Hey Guys! I’ve posted a fair few times on here, about my quad of four buns. Unfortunately, at the end of Jan, one of my boy buns very unexpectedly passed. At the end of March, one of my girl buns became very sick very quick, and also had to be put to sleep. They both had what was suspected to...

Hello everyone, Overnight, my 3.5 year old neutered male rabbit passed away. About 10 days ago, I noticed one of his eyes/eyelids looked a little bit swollen, and there was a bit of discharge from his eyes. His nose was also a little wet, and over the space of a few days a bit of hair was lost...

If you’re going to desex them, I wouldn’t seperate! My two girls did this. As long as it doesn’t escalate, don’t seperate!

Hello!! I’ve just been reading about colouring in rabbits, and have read that the only rabbits that have red eyes are REW and himalayans. I’ve also read about Lutino rabbits, and that they also have red eyes, but a coloured coat. I was googling all this as I have a bunny, who has purple eyes...

Thank you for replying! How would he catch this? They haven’t been anywhere, and he is acting normal otherwise. My only other thought where it may have been from, is that they have a wire cat tunnel in their house, that the chewed the plastic off so the wire was exposed. I’ve seen him try to...

Hi guys! I need some urgent help. This morning I noticed some scabs at the edge of my bunnies mouth. I have no idea what these would be from. His nose also looks like there’s a bit of dried snot or something like between his nose and his lips. His eyes also look a tiny bit funny, however that...

Hello! Thought I’d post an update. I took my buns off pellets for about two weeks, and then slowly introduced pellets back into their diets. We had no issues stomach wise, until about a week ago. He didn’t eat again for a few hours. Like normal, two nights later it happened again. My...

We buy large bales of pasture hay for our buns. Not as good I don’t think as the specialist hays like oxbow does, however they are just not attainable budget wise for us! We are in Australia so they’re really expensive. The pasture hay generally comes as a mix of things. Bales can also vary...

They weren’t consistently getting greens, but for the last maybe 2-3 weeks they’ve been getting greens every night/second night. It was a bit tricky for a little bit, as our supermarket pretty much ran out for a while. My buns are all mini lops. Three came from the same place though; two of...

Hello!! I have four bonded bunnies. In February-March I bonded them. They were on a hay only diet for about 7 weeks. In that time, presumably from the stress of bonding too, they all lost a little bit of weight. They all lost an equivalent amount of weight to each other, and so our vet wasn’t...

Hmm, okay. They have two kinds of oxbow, so maybe I will limit them to just the plain one and see how that goes! If it was a sensitivity to pellets, wouldn’t it happen every time they are eaten?? And how long would it take for there to be a reaction? The hay only was over a period of 6-7...

Hello @JBun Thank you for replying! When he stretches out if he’s in one of these episodes, it’s generally only when one of his bonded partners are grooming him. When he does this, it is a full on proper relaxed flop. No stomach pushing or anything. The digging is also not uncharacteristic for...

Thank you for replying! I only feed my bunnies pellets once a day. They will get a treat when I go up to feed them too. Everyday I go up to check my bunnies in the morning around 9am, and in the afternoon at about 6pm. It’s at 6pm that they get a treat and their pellets. Ordinarily all bunnies...

Hello! I have a question I would like some advice on from other bunny owners. One of my bunnies, a 3 year old mini lop, is periodically having episodes where he won’t eat for an hour or so. This has been going on for quite some time; at least over a year. When it first started, I would just...

Hello!! Can I ask where abouts in Victoria you are?? I would be worried that it may be myxo

Hello! I return to this thread I ended up getting the expensive blood test done about two weeks ago, and just got the results today. He tested positive for E.Cuniculi. I know that no one on here are vets, and I am planning on ringing my vet on tuesday when she is back, but I was just wondering...

Hello! we have four chickens, and yesterday one of them passed away after struggling to breathe all day. We’ve been doing some reading, and think that it may have been coccidiosis. We aren’t 100% sure, but due to how fast she died that’s what we think. I have 4 bunnies obviously, so I was...

The treats were peckish natural greens treats. They were having about 9 each, as they were tiny. They normal get science selective loops, but I ran out so I got those as I can get them locally. Otherwise no, no other treats or anything.

@JBun i should say aswell, the bunny that was on antibiotics had a urinalysis and blood tests done just two weeks ago, which all came back normal

Not that I’ve ever been aware of?? I gave them a different kind of treat the last few nights that they’re not used to; could that have caused it???
